Abstract
Los archivos personales activos o vigentes pueden seguir creciendo mientras duren las actividades personales y profesionales de los productores. Los archivos personales que pasan a ser conservados son una importante fuente de información, sobre todo, para elaborar biografías y trazar las trayectorias profesionales, pues son fuentes primarias de información.
En cualquier caso, es preciso realizar tareas específicas para mantener el orden y control documental siguiendo los principios básicos pautados por la archivística. Son tareas llevadas a cabo por los archiveros profesionales y siguiendo unas directrices normalizadas, indistintamente de los documentos que contengan los archivos, así como los diferentes soportes.
La pregunta es: ¿Qué ocurre cuando de manera voluntaria, sin conocimientos previos archivísticos alguien decide hacerse cargo del archivo y que este funcione bien? Un testimonio real es el de D. Antonio del Campo Machicado, que nos habla de su pasión por el archivo, de cómo puso sus ideas a disposición de las entidades donde trabajó, cómo fueron aceptadas y el legado que dejó; una manera de personalizar el archivo profesional. Dicho testimonio también muestra una parte de su propio archivo personal (Archivo ACM), y con ello se brinda un homenaje a todos los archivos personales anónimos, ricos en “tesoros” particulares.
Active or current personal files can continue to grow as long as the producers' personal and professional activities last. The personal archives that are nowadays being kept are an important source of information, especially for drawing up biographies and tracing career paths, as they are primary sources of information. In any case, specific tasks must be carried out to maintain order and documentary control, following the basic principles laid down by the archive. These are tasks carried out by professional archivists and following standardised guidelines, regardless of the documents contained in the archives, as well as the different supports. The question is: What happens when, voluntarily, without prior archival knowledge, someone decides to take charge of the archive and make it work well? A real testimony is that of Mr Antonio del Campo Machicado, who tells us about his passion for the archive, how he made his ideas available to the entities where he worked, how they were accepted and the legacy he left behind: a way of personalising the professional archive. This testimony also shows a part of his personal archive (ACM Archive), and thus pays homage to all the anonymous personal archives, rich in particular "treasures".
